I must admit, the last (the
very last) time I went thru w/d I was too embarassed to go back to the ER so I did it at home by myself. It took me several days before I felt human again, not shaking like a leaf and feeling like I was going to die.
I did some research on alcohol w/d and did what I could do to be safe. I drank a lot of fluids, water, juice, gatorade, and ate food like soup and crackers that was 'easy' on my stomach. I rested as much as possible, even tho I couldn't sleep, and distracted myself with movies and this site.
Take a look at that link - quitting, what to expect - for the things we did during w/d from alcohol. I hope you can find some good advice there.
Is there anyone who could stay with you for a few days? A good friend? Someone you trust? And please, if you have
any problems or feel really badly, PLEASE get medical help.
